Hi all
I'm a bit baffled by this - since getting Be Value Broadband (8Mb uncapped unthrottled etc.) connected, and attaching my XP MCE PC to the Be Box router via Ethernet, my bootup time into Windows has got about 4x longer. Most of this time is spent on the "Windows XP" splash screen with the little blue bar scrolling by.
I'm guessing it's to do with the network rather than something over broadband? The Be Box is set to DHCP and my PC to obtain an IP address automatically. Is it anything to do with this? I'm just guessing, frankly...
I've got Bootvis but I don't really know what to do with it either...
What's going on? Can someone please help with suggestions of what the delay is, or info on how I can try to find out and fix it?
Hope you can help, cheers all
DM
